My group of 6pax have enjoyed our 2D1N tour of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, we were especially fortunate to have such an excellent guide in Ms Zhang, 张静娟. Our itinerary was well scheduled and Ms Zhang's detailed explanation of the places that we're visiting is clear and precise. She has also advised us of the nice local food that we should try. The 6 different transportation is an experience as we crossed the Alps and the mountains to reach the snow walls. The highest point of the wall was 11m, unfortunately, it was raining when we reached the snow wall, our photos was alittle blurry and wet but our excitement has compensated for the weather 😂

Our tour was on a Monday and we had Dave as our guide. The tour itself was great. We started the tour at monkey park. I do wish we had the option to arrive there earlier to beat the crowd, and enjoy walk to the park. But if you’re patient enough, you can get a good spot to see the monkeys in the hot springs. Before heading to the shrine, we stopped for lunch and let Dave picked. So glad he picked, it was delicious soba. Then we arrived at shrine. The walk along the tree lines felt ethereal and majestic, especially with the snow. Now about our tour guide, Dave really made the whole day super enjoyable. He arrived promptly and warmly. Dave was a wonderful tour guide. He lives locally, and pointed out fun local spots. At each location, he was very patient with us. Went above and beyond when taking our photos. Loved this tour.

this was a fantastic trio of villages to visit, especially in winter. Gokayama is quiet and otherworldly! The paper washi making was super fun, our guide and driver were consistent and reliable, the car itself was comfy, and the scenery between places was absolutely breathtaking. definitely worth paying the money to get to experience the immense beauty of this region without the hassle of driving or getting around via other methods.

I have never stayed at a perfect hotel like this one. Everything is just wonderful. The bathroom is clean and very well maintained, the view is magnificent. Since I travel w a kid so nearby eateries are walkable but not suitable if you have a kid. The onsen is the best and I went 2x. Ski rentals in the hotel is also very convenient as well, there are free lockers and dryer room for the ski gears. Breakfast is delicious.

I was very impressed with Next Tour's service for a 10-hour private Fuji tour. The team's coordination was excellent; they created a chat group in advance to confirm the itinerary and contact numbers. Our driver, Mr. Shrestha, arrived before the scheduled time, was very polite, and drove smoothly and safely. Even though it rained on the day of our tour and the weather wasn't ideal, making it difficult to see Mount Fuji clearly, Mr. Shrestha made an effort to take care of us and helped us check in at various spots. He communicated well in English, which made the trip very smooth. I highly recommend this service for anyone traveling to Japan with family or friends.
Kitaadumi at a glance
Quick facts about Kitaadumi
General info
What to know before visiting Kitaadumi
Quick snapshot of Kitaadumi County
Kitaadumi County draws most bookings for outdoor and sports activities, with parks and gardens and tours also among the top categories. Demand swings through the year — Klook data shows a sharp winter peak and a pronounced late-summer trough, so the county’s rhythm alternates between very busy and very quiet months.
Best time to visit and how prices behave
Klook booking data shows the busiest month is February and the quietest is August. Prices do not follow demand perfectly: while demand is highest in February, prices in August are typically the priciest on Klook, and prices fall to their lowest around April. If you want lower prices and fewer people, plan for April or other shoulder months; if you want the peak-season atmosphere and the busiest activity choices, aim for February. Note the divergence between demand and price — August can feel quiet but is often more expensive than spring.
Tips for travellers from the United States
Most visitors from the United States book activities only a few days ahead: typical Klook bookings happen about three days before, with many last-minute bookings possible one day out and some travellers booking up to about eleven days early. That flexibility makes spontaneous trips easy, but if you travel in February or other busy months consider locking in popular outdoor activities a week or so in advance. Use Klook to compare availability and grab confirmed spots when you see the options you want.
